My trip to Africa made a big difference in my life, I will never be the same.
When I walked in the street I looked at how the people live and i got to thinking, Wow.......how do some of these people go through so much and still trust God? Going to Africa made me realise how much I really have! My life has changed, My dreams have changed, I want to teach others about God.....I am so glad God brought Nakiah in my life! If we didn't go to Africa i wouldn't think anything of the starving people in Africa, i mean i had no idea where Africa was before the adoption.......i never really thought on it....not in deep thought i mean....But now that's all i can think about! My heart fell in love with Uganda Africa, and i cant wait to once return! but....being only 14 I can't go by my self....All i can do is pray and wait for Gods plan for my life... =) I think God everyday for bringing Nakiah in my life! =D
I will never be the same!

Kaitie, I love this! God has definitely given you this deep love and, what I call, homesickness for Uganda for a reason. I know that He will take you there once again and will use you to do great, amazing things for His kingdom. Be excited about what is to come! =]

I pray that God will take you back to Uganda someday, even though my selfish self doesn't want you to leave!!
